[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Ludovic Courtès <ludo <at> gnu.org> skribis:

> The problem is that the ‘cond-expand’ used to define ‘arch32bit?’ is a

I confirm that the attached patch for Bytestructures solves the problem
(running ‘guix pull’ in my childhurd :-)).

Let’s see whether it needs to be adapted for inclusion upstream.

Subject: [PATCH] Correctly define 'intptr_t' & co. when cross-compiling.

Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/44000>.

* bytestructures/guile/numeric-data-model.scm (data-model): Export.
* bytestructures/body/numeric.scm (arch32bit?): Check the value of
DATA-MODEL rather than use 'cond-expand'.
